  • Numerical analysis

  • Statistical Analysis

  • Financial Analysis

  • Business Analytics

Answer

Numerical analysis is the study of approximation algorithms, or how to find good approximations to the solutions of mathematical problems. This is in contrast to exact algorithms, which produce the exact solution of a problem. Numerical analysis is often used to solve problems that are too complex for exact algorithms to handle. Yau's work in numerical analysis has focused on the development of new algorithms for solving partial differential equations.
